Wellbeing at Work Coaching
Health Coaching Program for Leaders
What is the Wellbeing at Work Coaching Program?
This is a 3-month coaching program for leaders who want to execute on their business goals and further their ambitions without sacrificing their health today or in the future. The program uses science and technology which removes the guesswork around their health, backed up with our expertise. The program is a significant competitive advantage for companies wanting to attract and retain top talent within their business.
The Problems
Sleep
An oft-cited study found that a person who sleeps 4 to 5 hours a night performs tasks like someone who is legally drunk. Most leaders are sacrificing sleep in order to be competitive, but a lack of sleep profoundly affects their decision-making ability and cognitive performance.
Mental Health
According to research by Advanced, one in five leaders have admitted to feeling under pressure all the time, and 65% have said they either don’t switch off or struggle to switch off. Almost half (48%) blamed lack of time as a key source of their work pressure.
Energy
Closely connected with sleep and mental health, many leaders start to suffer from a lack of energy which affects their ability to make decisions and lead their teams effectively. According to the most recent report by Theresa Welbourne, founder of eePulse, 82% of business leaders aren’t working at their optimal energy level.
Awareness
The body sends out health warnings, but we’ve become very used to ignoring them. Some red flags around health are easy to detect but many are not, and we need data or technology to help us surface those signals.
Time
The convergent pressures of work and home may have squeezed out the bandwidth a busy senior leader has for their health and wellbeing and certainly time will be a very valuable asset. Most leaders do not have the time to research, prioritise and execute on their health and wellbeing.
How Does it Work?
Keeping the heart of your business healthy
Your leaders are the engine of your business and their state of health could determine the health of your business. The 3-month Program includes a DNA test for optimal diet and fitness, a custom blood panel to test for key health markers, a device to track stress responses and fortnightly coaching with our team of experts. The data takes away the guesswork from your health and provides personalised, actionable insights backed up by our expertise
Leanne worked with us to build awareness of wellbeing within our firm through sessions with our senior leaders and other selected colleagues, and also undertook some consultancy work to help create a wellbeing strategy. Leanne’s passion and knowledge of her specialist subject matter is highly impressive and she brings a refreshing perspective developed through a high level of research and personal experience. I would recommend Leanne to any organisation looking to make a step change in their approach to their people’s happiness and effectiveness at work.
